Hi,
Just wanted to add that I use Col Conk soap as well. When I tried to build lather in the mug I did not get that much lathery response, but I switched to face lathering and it works fantastic for me-- I get rich thick creamy lather in no time. Similar to the advice here:
-Soak brush in really hot water
-Put about 1/4 teaspoon of hot water on top of the col conk puck, let it sit for a few minutes
-Squeese out about 90% of the water from the brush
-Load the brush, pressing down pretty hard (15-20 swirls ought to do it)
-Swirl on face to build lather, if too dry drizzle a bit of hot water into the brush (I drizzle it into the base of the brush and let it work its way to the tips, I get nice warm lather that way)
I've also found the hotter the water, the faster I can hit the lather sweet spot. Try it once with boiling hot water and you'll see what I mean.
Good luck!
